Granted this is from Feb 2010. Especially after clocking a 4.36 I'm thinking that he might be going higher in the draft than most think. Excellent physical skills that were downplayed by the dual weights around his neck of Zook and Williams. If he had a better junior year he'd probably be right in the discussion for us at #12. My personal opinion is that his size, speed, yac qualities are just what the doctor ordered for our offense, plugging the one remaing true hole. Also interesting is the connection to Vontae Davis:

Arrelious Benn eager to prove he can match his talent with production
Illinois wide receiver Arrelious Benn, who many mock drafts suggest could be a potential first-round pick for the Ravens, didn't have particularly impressive college stats. His final year at Illinois, his junior year, he had just 38 catches for 490 yards and two touchdowns. But almost no one blames those subpar numbers on Benn, who was one of the Fighting Illini's few bright spots in a 3-9 season. It made it an easy decision to leave school after his junior year.
